Tangle U 2017

Tangle U is the premier continuing education event for CZTs. Tangle U attracts students from around the globe. Tangle U 2017 is at the beautiful Naples Beach Hotel in Naples Florida. In our fifth year, we have an outstanding lineup of core classes that all registered students attend as well as "extra credit" classes during the day on Thursday and on Thursday and Saturday evenings. On Friday night we'll have a super fun Luau Themed Banquet! Tangle U includes most of your meals - allowing you some flexibility to customize to your taste and budget. Tangle U will offer optional airport transportation, excursions on Thursday and an optional dinner cruise on Sunday evening. Click here for F.A.Q.'s

All of your teachers at Tangle U are CZTs and all of your classes are designed to "take and teach". You will leave with a binder full of lesson plans, resources and examples ready for you to teach to your students! The six core classes were selected to provide you with a variety of topics!

And if that's not enough you can opt into some "Extra Credit" classes! (extra fee applies)

Do you like to shop? Our vendor area has art supplies of course and all kinds of colorful things that you'll want to bring home with you! Interested in vending?​We will have a Student Gallery where you can display a favorite tile or ZIA - aways an amazing display! Keep in mind that everyone carries a camera so displaying your work means you're okay with others taking pictures of it.

​And it's not all classroom time! We have a lot of fun too. We share fabulous meals together - giving you time to get to know each other, socialize and share! And this year - a Luau and Silent Auction! The bidding can get fierce but it's all in good fun and funds our student scholarships for the following year! Click here for the event schedule

The 2014 and 2016 silent auction funded our scholarships for this year. We have two $600 scholarships available. To apply click here.
